Non-believing Danish pastor facing trial gets backing from a 'majority'

Copenhagen (ENI). A majority of Danes surveyed in a recent inquiry support a Danish Lutheran priest who faces a trial in a clerical court for not believing in God as creator. "The majority of the Danes simply do not worry that much about the theology of the priest," said Peter Luchau from the Epinion research institute, which conducted the survey. "It would be a different matter if he came to church in bright green bathing trunks."
